Default What to set 2step launch at?

bolt on gsr swap in my civic. getting a chipped ecu and the options free so mines as well get some use out of it. so what should i set it at? going to be using drag radials for the street/strip btw too.

also is it worth messing with the vtec crossover with just having bolt ons?

yeah that sounds good for a b18c1 i would usually launch around 4000 but that was with high pro street tires. slicks maybe 5000 but not exactly sure being ive never used slicks......what kind of clutch would help a lil more

i could answer anyones question with that answer, i kind of like it.

seriously tho, somewhere in the 4500-5000 rpm range should be good, but more info on clutch and diff would help!

I agree, with these guys, it's difficult to set a two step off an idea. My car with a 6 puck and 22 inch slicks leaves at 7500 and we started at 5500 and went up just to see what the car liked. You can't really just guess at it. It's trial and error.
